Wonderful company! Covered over $70,000 of vet bills!
Our dogs has had 4 major surgeries and 4 minor surgeries and Healthy Paws has paid everything with no questions. Ziva’s total cost of surgeries is around $70,000 and we have only paid 20%. I will never use another company. Once we place the claim it is only about a week later that we have the check. Wonderful company! The key is to get the dog on the insurance at a young age. When we started her as a puppy it was only $35 a month. As she aged the insurance has gone up. The price does not go up based on the number of claims.

Smart decision …
When my sweet sweet Golden Retriever puppy Tucker came into my life, I new I wanted to purchase pet insurance just in case I ever needed it. I looked around and chose Healthy Paws!! So thankful I made this choice.Tucker had some skin issues and diagnosed with Thyroid Disease and put on medication and Healthy Paws has always paid on his blood work and medication. Tucker who is now 5 was just diagnosed with Epilepsy. He had his first seizure in Jan 2023 resulted in trip to Emergency Vet at 1am and Healthy Paws was there to help! He had his 2nd and 3 rd seizures together just a couple hours apart resulted in another trip to Emergency Vet / Hospital where he was admitted and MRI and Spinal tap done to rule out brain abnormality and Healthy Paws was there with reimbursement within a week !!! He has been started on Keppra and Healthy Paws is there!!! Easy to file claims, quick reimbursement and affordable! They even checked on Tucker to see how he is doing!! My husband told me again this week that choosing Healthy Paws Pet insurance was such a smart smart decision!!!

Releived and Happy I chose Happy Paws!
I am so happy and relieved that I chose Happy Paws Pet Insurance for my Golden Retriever. The first year my dog was having trouble absorbing B12. She had to have a lot of shorts for maybe 6 to 9 months. They paid out more than I paid them. I was scared they'd dump us off of the insurance or raise the premium double or triple. Nope. They kept us and the premium went up only a few dollars a month. And they paid me back within a few days. Recently she had to have an emergency spay to save her life. Again, we got paid back within 4 days! They are awesome! I chose them mainly because Golden Retrievers have a very high cancer rate. I've heard it's 50%. Healthy Paws have no limit or cap how much they'll pay out over the life of your pet. Anytime anyone on FB asks about pet insurance, I ALWAYS highly suggest Healthy Paws to everyone! They won't disappoint you at all!

My too smart for his own good dog…
My too smart for his own good dog opened a mason jar and ate a bunch of chocolate. At the emergency clinic you could tell the vet wanted to keep him overnight but was worried the expense would be too much. I said I have pet insurance and her whole body relaxed. My doggo got the best care, has no liver damage and is back to his old self. I received a reimbursement check within a week and can now pay off my credit card with zero interest. So thankful for Healthy Paws

Up up up go the prices
I have been a loyal customer of Healthy Paws through two dogs and over 15 years. My dog, Daphne, is 11 years old with 0 health problems. We started by paying $30 and every year her premium has increased an incremental amount. $10 here and there, sometimes less than $10. Suddenly, she's over 10 years old and poof, the premium has increased over 100% in the past two years.
In the passed two months ALONE, we have had two increases on our premium, one from $90/month to $127 then a month after that increase, our premium went to $158. The second increase was because we moved 1.5 miles down the road. As if this location increases are pet costs by 360 a year. Still have the same vet, same emergency services and live in a safer neighborhood so, please, someone from healthy paws explain the justification of that hike. I'd love to hear the logic.
There is no discernible reason for this increase. The point of insurance is for the healthy young animals to pay for the costs of the older ones and when they get older, the younger animals will help pay for them. It's truly a simple and old fashioned business model that has turned predatory to take advantage of loving pet parents in the past decade and Healthy Paws used to be the exception and now, they're apart of the prefatory health insurance rule.
Every time I talk to customer service, they mention increases in rates at the state level. I have contacted the state and these increases are not reflective of the 60% increase in costs in two months! They have quoted me around a 10% increase in pet insurance costs in the past year. Therefore this is DIRECT evidence of Healthy Paws predatory practices of cash grabbing in the name of inflation. Inflation isn't 60%, kids.
They are simply taking advantage of the fact that I have been a long-time client, care about the wellness of my pet and know they likely won't have to pay out on my pet because of her good health. This increase is absolutely arbitrary and exists to line the businesses pockets and the pockets of their shareholders.
I'd stay the heck away from Healthy Paws your choices are more abundant than they were when my dog was a puppy. They don't value long-time customers, they clearly don't care about pets more than the almighty dollar and certainly do not work with anyone regarding price.
A true consumer and pet parent's nightmare.

Highly recommend Healthy Paws.
We have had our two dogs insured for several years. Healthy Paws has always been easily to work with - gluing claims is simple and checks arrive quickly. Their customer service is great and there are no surprises. Highly recommend.

Great company, fast easy claims payment
Our little Maltese had a herniated disc in his neck and needed surgery right before Christmas. Thank goodness we had Healthy Paws insurance. They paid 80% of the $5000 bill within 2 days, Unlike other Pet insurance policies, they do not have an annual limit (often $3-4K max). This was such a stressful situation for our family, but Healthy Paws gave us peace of mind at least with the financial aspect. Great company!

Healthy Paws is AWESOME
I would never have a pet without pet insurance. Healthy Paws has been fantastic for my hyperactive German Shorthaired Pointer. She is a hunting dog, and is prone to all types of injuries. Healthy Paws actually checks on your pet to see how they are feeling, and pays claims promptly. Great company.
